Jim,
What antenna and receiver are you using?


73 de Joe


Icom 756 Pro III with 66 ft dipole facing N-S @ 25 ft. Heard the
interval signal and national anthem @ 0200 UTC Still S9+ 5 to 10dB.
Now in Spanish.

Gotta love those sunspots.

Here on the west coast, NKorea transmissions are almost as frequent as
Chinese transmissions. If you tune around the right time of day, on
some bands you will hear nothing BUT NKorean outlets. Sometimes I
wish they'd get an R4 radio blackout over Pyongyang.
